Just bought an RTX 2080. Is it playable with RT on low at 1440P? Or just not worth it?

Trialling the game I was getting a little just under 60FPS on average using DXR Low and mostly everything else on High. I tend to use GeForce Experience so I set custom settings for the game and slid the slider to the Quality side until DXR was set to low and then a little further which put mostly everything else on High.
Using g-sync I've found it completely workable and the frame rate is fairly steady, ie, no huge drops.
Apparently plenty of optimisations coming too in future patches

His fawning over it gives me the impression Jensen is in the room with a gun pointed at the reviewers plums.

How has the AMD driver improved performance for this game?

Got a 1700 3200mhz ram and Vega 64 Nitro at 1440p wondering what kind of FPS I will see?

Pretty darn good.

1600 with 3200MHz ram, Asus Strix Vega 64 at 3840x1600

GPU usage runs from 60-99% and CPU usage is around 50-60%

High settings and I'm hitting a solid 60-75fps in all online maps with freesync and enhanced sync enabled.

Really happy with the whole setup and I'm normally a FPS man and hate input lag etc.

Thanks. So guess I will try out the game.

I liked the video.

The biggest hurdle and elephant in the room however is how broken DX12 is in the Frost Bite engine.

Broken in BF1 and it's still broken in BFV. If they have any dreams of improving the performance of RT in this game they need to start by making DX12 a usable solution even with RT turned off.

At the moment DX11 is still king.

How can they have any plans for RT when this is still the situation. :confused:

Q.

Why did this game cause my PC to hard reset?

At the time I was getting performance issues. 2 CTD.

The crashing has been solved by capping FPS to 120 in game.

But a hard reset?

The only thing 'OC'ed' in the PC is the ram.

But it's 8 Pack ram running at 3133MHz as 3200MHz is unstable.

I bought the ram around May ish. It's been fine since at 3133MHz. I just played 100hrs if Divinity 2 and not a hitch.

This game and I get a hard reset. :confused:

PSU is old. 6-7 years. But still going strong.

Set ram to default and try. Its the only way of ruling that out. Just because most things work, it doesn't mean 100% stability.

So a hard reset is definitely hardware related? Can software cause it?

I guess it must be the ram... it's the only variable. I'll take it down a step.

Well, as with all things computers, it is difficult to say with certainty, but i would certainly say a hard reset is more likely to be hardware related than software. I think, in situations like this, the first troubleshooting step should be to return things to factory settings/defaults just to rule out the overclock. Another cause for hard resets could well be the PSU giving up the ghost. Maybe Battlefield just asks for that little too much juice

Im also getting hard resets only with BFV it tends to do it when the game launches did once in the middle of a map bringing my overclock down didnt help.

Only happen once for me. Capping my fps to 120 I think has solved the problem. And also smoothed it out.

GeForce experience now recommending higher settings for the 2080. Actually getting a higher FPS now than the last time I played which was with RT set to low and high everything else. Now using RT low and ultra most everything else. GPU is using more memory though, 7.2GB.

Gerard · 23 Nov 2018 at 22:55

Funny thing about bfv is it seems to perform better on my titan as opposed to the 2080ti, even though the ti gets around 25fps-ish more. Seems a lot more hitchy on the ti for whatever reason.

FlyingScotsman · 23 Nov 2018 at 23:12

No issues yet with BFV, only played around 8 hours in it and seems pretty stable.

See I'm miffed with the Geforce Experience.

I used t on BFV and it seems to optimise the settings to what I thought looked reasonable.

However with Far Cry 5 it wanted to set most things to low.... When I set everything to Ultra I get a minimum of around 60 and highs of 80 so it's not very consistent.

When it comes to BF my 1080 is perfectly smooth maxed out at 1440p during the most intense of times. But then stutters when I make a quick side movement sometimes when there isn't much going on.

It might be the motion blur that needs to be turned off... but I hate turning things off in the settings unless it's AA.

DX12 / DX11 same performance. Both a bit hitchy if I'm honest.

Me as well. It’s been quite smooth on DX12. All set to ultra 2080FE getting 70-90 FPS. This games much more fun to play then BF1 ever was. I’m really like it.
